Should Catholic priests be forced to reveal their congregants' confessions to assist the police?

[Ranger0075]

So criminals would never confess and then they would follow without asking for priest help... Also, why not asking to his advocate too? You are just using a totalitarian tool fucking with all contradiction principles already

[The Lawspeaker]

What he basically wants is for a priest to spy on his parishioners. The priest as your local government Stasi Inoffizieler Mitarbeiter. Leftists will always show their true colours. Because that's how Leftists start with undermining set principles: first they reach for the targets from which they know they could get some public support, next will be "racism", then "transphobia", "homophobia", not wearing a fucking mask etc. etc.

It's an old, trick, TC. We know the game. Don't try it again, clear ?

I do not think he should be forced to do so. However, if a priest does it willingly because he thinks that according to his moral and religious principles in a certain circumstance it is more important to break his oath (hypothetical scenario where someone confesses to be holding someone hostage for years or planing to commit a mass shooting for example) than to keep it confidential, I don't think he should be condemned by his religious peers for that too.
